Taking cost-benefit analysis to the next dimension
In this new article, Mark Brackstone takes a look at how this EU-funded research group has taken cost-benefit analysis to the next level.
Checking Real Data Sets for Consistency
Mohammad Saifuzzaman shows how the Aimsun Real Data Set Checker makes it quicker and easier to create clean datasets and examines some different use cases.
Running a simulation in Aimsun Next connected to SCATSim
Dimitris Triantafyllos explains how to run a micro or meso simulation in Aimsun Next connected to SCATSim, a suite of software modules designed to emulate the SCATS adaptive traffic control system.
Demand Responsive Transport: flexible tools for planning and operational solutions
The MultiDEPART team developed tools to plan, manage and monitor DRT solutions in Lisbon, Barcelona Metropolitan Area and Thessaloniki, targeting PTAs and facilitating the harmonization and scalability of DRT services across European cities.

Side-lane merging in an Aimsun Next mesoscopic model
June 2022: Aimsun Next has a specific mesoscopic merging behavior model that is controlled by the cooperation gap and merging gap parameters. Mohammad Saifuzzaman explains how to use these parameters to control merging behavior and match observed traffic flow and congestion.
Autonomous Vehicles in Urban Networks: A Simulation-Based Assessment
Autonomous Vehicles in Urban Networks: A Simulation-Based Assessment
Taking the micro to the macro: scaling impact assessment of connected and autonomous vehicles
How can we represent microscopic simulation results at the macroscopic level? One way is by use of the Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD) concept, which Aimsun has been progressing within the H2020 LEVITATE Project
Reversible lanes and alternating one-way lanes
May, 2022: In transport networks, the available infrastructure may vary through the day. In this technical note we will review how to close lanes temporarily in one direction so that the other direction can use them
